Odysseus has many quality traits. At times he is very self conceited and selfish. When he returned home after being absent from his kingdom for 20 year he disguised himself. Most people in his circumstances would have rushed home to see his wife and kid whose childhood he missed. Instead he made a plan to spy on his wife to make sure she was loyal, which she had been, and he had not. He would have killed his wife for not being loyal, meanwhile he was quite the opposite. All she did was sit around and mope, while large quantities of men tried to seduce, but she stayed faithful. He missed a lot of many things while he was away, the suitors took over his house, he missed his kid grow up, his mother died, and his father wishes he were dead.
